The Night Circus
SINOPSE
The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night.
But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway: a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them both, this is a game in which only one can be left standing. Despite the high stakes, Celia and Marco soon tumble headfirst into love, setting off a domino effect of dangerous consequences, and leaving the lives of everyone, from the performers to the patrons, hanging in the balance.

OPINIÃO DOS LEITORES
Descrições encantadoras
M.C.
A prosa é linda e o ambiente que o livro cria é encantador mas a história em si demora a desenvolver e quando desenvolve pouco acontece. Apesar de ter um palco mágico, o enredo é quase inexistente sendo a personagem mais interessante do livro o circo em si. Não é uma obra má mas não foi para mim.
A rollercoaster of emotions
Margarida
4.5 stars. I really enjoyed riding the rollercoaster that was this book. It overlaps, it takes some narrow turns all while the scenario around you makes you forget you are in a rollercoaster at all. There are some quotes I will take with me from this book, some life lessons too. The only reason I don’t give this book 5 stars is because of how confusing it can become, and how underwhelming the ending was. But other than that, this book was amazing
